True Blue

Think Rudiger will keep his place and Cahill will have to do much much better to bench him. On the other hand i fully believe Cahill will start against Qarabag and maybe even Christensen. I was unsure about Rudiger after watching him in Roma with a short temper but i was surprised he did very well. The new signings are all spot on so far hands down. Even Zappacosta looked good in his cameo against Leicester. Think we will start the game on Tuesday like this: --------------------------Caballero----------------------------- Dave----------------Christensen------------------Cahill Zappacosta----Drinkwater---Cesc----Alonso Willian---------------Michy----------------Pedro

The team worked well today with Baka, Kante and Cesc. However the wing role doesn't suit Cesc at all.I doubt they will have the advantage with both Baka and Kante

I am not taking the piss, but is Everton now worse with all the new players than last season? Perhaps time to gel?

I would to be honest

OFF Topic

Don't see him starting ahead of any of our current CB's, he will be used in the cup's and probably in the easier games in the UCL.

Vikings into season 3 now

If Costa does return, and the board forces Conte to play him he will walk 100%

Oh i clearly misspelled it honest.

You do know what rattled means right?

Tesos dos Retardos

Can't wait for him to fuck off, great player but chose to be a child rather to honor his contract. Missed pre season, got paid for all the months he wasn't in the club. Sell him in January, don't pay him until then the club will probably also sue him which they have the right to.

Deserved for acting like a child, missed the pre season and he is getting paid to stay in Brasil and enjoy himself.

Think will remain CB, as we now have cover for Moses.

Alonso puts in decent balls, but hardly for good headers. Moses can't cross the ball to save his life, also his finishing needs work big time. I like Moses he puts a good fight and with Zappacosta in he must step up or lose his spot to the Italian.

Not sure who will be top scorer, but Chelsea is a team in which every player scores goals.

The media has never been a fan of Chelsea, could care less Conte doesn't seem bothered. He made things work that people laughed at. They said Luiz was shit, Alonso was shit, Moses is average and so on. He should just keep the team on a very high level and even the names that are not households will exceed their potential.

For the moment we have 22 player, without the keepers 19. We still have Remy on our books, even tough i think he could leave for Spain. In all seriousness he coudl be worth keeping as the third striker option. The team is slightly better and refreshed, the bench now looks far better.

Apparently it was arranged by Conte and Martinez that he will have some play time. Didn't expect him to start, but then again he looked fit as fuck against the Everton's under 23

The experts also laughed about Azpilicueta because he was unknown, don't see anyone laughing now? Give the man a chance, he is an International he can fill both wings backs and he came at a very fair price considering the transfer madness. Drinkwater will follow but i don't see us getting anyone else.

Yes Ox, Llorente were key for us. I think we would win the Champions League with that class hands down. And Morata > Lukaku

Well if i knew how to read...........

In Zappacosta, Conte will have a player renowned for featuring in the right-wing-back position, a role Conte has utilised successfully in his 3-4-3 formation since arriving at Chelsea last summer.

BREAKING NEWS Sky in Italy understand Chelsea have reached a deal to sign Torino right-back Davide Zappacosta. A fee of £23m plus add-ons has been agreed. Antonio Conte wants competition at right-wing back, having failed to secure a deal for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.

Hey they might surprise us tomorrow with a wingback
